It seems that Angèle in Napa is having some trouble holding on to its chefs: just a year after Patrick Kelly departed, joining wife Bridget Batson at Gitane, his replacement, Scott Ekstrom (right), has also split. "Things didn't work out with Scott," says owner Bettina Rouas. He'll be replaced by Rogelio Garcia, a Napa kitchen veteran who cooked at Angèle under Kelly. Meanwhile, Ekstrom is looking to stay in the area, but he can't resist a little swipe at management: "I am hoping to...find a home more receptive and appreciative of my culinary talents."
